About

I am a Postdoctoral Research Fellow in Multi-Energy Systems and Communities at Salford Business School, University of Salford, Manchester, UK. Under the supervision of Prof. Vahid Vahidinasab, my work focuses on resilient and sustainable energy communities, particularly in the areas of electrification and the integration of electric vehicles. I am part of the DriVe2X project, funded by EU Horizon Europe and UK Research and Innovation (UKRI), which aims to accelerate the adoption of vehicle electrification through innovative bi-directional smart charging technologies.
Previously, I was a Postdoctoral Researcher in the Electrical Engineering Department at Sharif University of Technology, Tehran, Iran. During this time, I received a grant from the Iran National Science Foundation (INSF) to investigate secure multi-party computation methods for cyber-physical systems, enabling privacy-preserving outsourcing of computationally intensive control and optimization strategies. I conducted this research under the supervision of Prof. Mohammad Haeri at the Advanced Control Systems and Optimization Lab.
I earned my B.Sc. in Electrical Engineering from the Iran University of Science and Technology in 2011. Subsequently, I completed my M.Sc. and Ph.D. in Control Systems Engineering at Sharif University of Technology in 2013 and 2020, respectively. From October 2017 to May 2018, I was a visiting researcher in Prof. Gabriele Pannocchia's lab at the University of Pisa, Italy.

My research interest includes Robust and Model Predictive Control, Decentralized and Distributed Control, Privacy-preserving Computation and Energy Communities.
